CBXRT Banned 643 Member For: 13y 10m 7d Gender: Male Posted 20/01/12 12:29 AM Share Posted 20/01/12 12:29 AM I wouldnt say less drone mate, what I would say manual is sounds much better between gear changes.Autos with loud exhausts can sound really bad between shifts....much better in tiptronic mode though, still not to manual level.I hated the sound of the centre out on cold-start up, but above 3k and warm its great - hotdogs do flatten/deepen the note considerably. Each to their own I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting in a hot dog/resonator would probably give a better sound. Agree.I have tried a few things. Swapped out the resonator last week for one of these http://www.ebay.com....=item5ae11e31f3 to create some more restriction and then hiflowed the cat it's a nice balance for me anyways.

It's loud, sounds good inside. Hopefully quietens down a bit though.Funny thing is I've been in FG's with 3.5, 4 and twin 3 inch systems and I honestly can't tell the difference.
